Elections and legislation

2024 ELECTIONS AND LEGISLATION
Legislation and elections will take place at the Annual Meeting on Thursday, April 25 at South Point in Las Vegas. For questions, please contact convention@bowl.com.

Voting during the annual meeting will again be done using your mobile device (or on-site voting device if necessary). Delegates should ensure they have downloaded PointSolutions mobile app (formerly known as TurningPoint). If you were a delegate last year and voted using your mobile device, your login from last year remains the same. Please use the forgotten password procedure if you have any problems logging in. New delegates for 2024 should install the app and create a login. In the spring, delegate voting practice sessions will be held virtually, and on-site there will be a booth in the trade show to validate your credentials if necessary.

ELECTIONS

Annually, members can apply to run for a position on the USBC Board of Directors. The applications are open throughout the summer and close on October 1. Candidates seeking election whom are not slated by the nominating committee, may run from the floor if they provide notice of their candidacy to the committee by that year's designated cutoff date.

LEGISLATION

A benefit to USBC membership is ability to be part of USBC governance and submitting legislation you believe would be best for the sport.

Any member or chartered state or local association may submit a proposed amendment to the adult league
rules, adult tournament rules or these bylaws, except with respect to provisions for compliance with USOPC rules and regulations and provisions related to Athletes and Youth and other provisions mandated by the Articles of Incorporation or applicable law.

Amendments must be submitted in writing and received by USBC Headquarters on or before September 1 prior to the date of the next USBC Annual Meeting. Approval of an amendment to these Bylaws requires a two-thirds vote of the Delegates, present and voting at the USBC Annual Meeting where a quorum is present. Approval of an amendment to the adult league rules or adult tournaments rules requires a majority vote of the Delegates, present and voting at the USBC Annual Meeting where a quorum is present.

Legislation will be available in the early spring, prior to the annual meeting.
